Job description

Overview

Shape brilliant minds and guide students through the beauty of mathematics – join us as a Maths Teacher.

At Co-op Academy Manchester, we are looking for an individual with a passion for teaching, combined with a flair for all things numerical.

Could you inspire our students and help them to achieve the best possible outcomes?

The ideal candidate is enthusiastic about their subject, stays up to date with the latest research and developments, and has a genuine love for their discipline. They set high expectations for student behaviour and attention, are highly organised and dependable, and have a strong grasp of curriculum design and effective teaching methods. They are committed to a curriculum that emphasises a strong foundation of knowledge. This role is open to experienced teachers and/or ECTs with a hunger for learning and development.

Why us?

The academy, based in Higher Blackley in North Manchester, has over 1,600 students on roll and is part of Co-op Academies Trust.

Co-op Academy Manchester was recently judged ‘Good’ by Ofsted in March 2023. Ofsted said that:

“Leaders, trustees and governors strive for all pupils at Co-op Academy Manchester to be successful. Pupils are encouraged to demonstrate the ‘ways of being Co-op’ in all that they do.”

“Teachers have strong subject knowledge. They use their expertise to help pupils to learn well in lessons. Teachers who are not specialists in a subject receive appropriate and effective subject-specific training. This enables these teachers to deliver the curriculum equally well.”

“Leaders have thought carefully about the curriculum that they want all pupils to learn, including those with SEND. The curriculum is well organised. Subject leaders have thought deeply about the key knowledge that pupils should learn and the order in which this content should be taught.”

All our values are based upon the values of the Co-op Group, which will inform our behaviours.

Self-help: We do not expect to be spoon fed – we will try to do things for ourselves in the right way and at the right time.

Self-responsibility: Everyone should act in a responsible way around the academy site and in the local community. We take responsibility for our own learning; we want to become independent learners.

Equality: We are proud to be part of a very multicultural academy, with students from all over the world; it is important that we treat each other with respect and accept that others may be different from ourselves. We should all of us have equal chances to succeed.

Equity: We want to look for the best in each other. Rewarding others fairly to encourage all types of achievement.

Democracy: We will contribute our ideas to make the academy a success.

Solidarity: We can achieve more by working together, rather than as individuals.

Our Values

Being part of the Co-operative Group, we are both guided and driven by the Co-op values which are embedded in everything that we do within our Academy - We strive to demonstrate the following ethical values in everything we do - they are our ‘Ways of Being’:

Succeed together

Do what matters most

Be yourself, always

Show you care
